Meet with stakeholders to agree and develop a plan.
2. Turn off alerts
Remove distractions like email, slack, phone, social media, etc. for scheduled focus time.
3. Break up work into manageable chunks
Build in time for focus and breaks.
4. Prioritize
Limit your checklist. Know that your capacity and energy ebb and flow throughout the day. Be flexible.
Consider:
What do I need to do today?
What do I want to do today?
What can I put off until another day?
What can I ask someone else to do for me?
